Zotac is dropping 50-150 cards at a time on their own retail site every other day sometimes every day. Getting one is tricky but not impossible. EVGA queue seems to barely be moving 1-2 cards per day. Amazon notifications for EVGA cards come and go within micro seconds, straight to the bots, does EVGA care? No. Where are all the cards going EVGA? We are rotting away in your queue meanwhile other AIB's are actually selling tangible products. At this point the conspiracies of cards going out the back door at scalped prices are not so far fetched.

Zotac isn’t on Best Buy. They dont have a step up program. Evga queue is almost the same as zotac online sales. Then again evga is the smallest out of all the nvidia aib. But go ahead n shop at zotac n see if you can actually have a card. Oh wait u don’t n that’s why you’re here and whining. Some people are too entitled Karen for their own good

Keep shilling for EVGA. I'll get my Zotac card and then my FTW3 in about 8 months when EVGA catches up with the rest of the competition.

You do realize, that the step up program is just a way to sell you a lesser card to get your hopes up. You can only step it up with in 90 days of having bought the video card you want to step up and pay more money. If you are outside of that 90 days, you are not allowed to step it up. Which for their books that reports as 2 different video card sales to be reported to their board for each one of those video cards. Otherwise, continue acting like a child.

thanhkng I assumed that the step-up and new buyer is the same queue and even if there is a separate queue for new buyer depends on how EVGA prioritizes it I'm getting the 3080. EVGA received my old card today at 11 am and I already got the email of the tracking number for the 3080 the same day! They're moving as fast as they can. They do care for their customers.
Nope, they are completely different queues. The step up program also requires a 90 day window from the purchase date to be allowed. The step up program is probably getting more video cards than the other because of obligations. That is a service you are tied into that EVGA directly supports and offers. Where as the queue is not a service at all. Just a spot in a line for a specific product. So the two really are not comparable directly. Apples to Oranges. One they care about, one they don't. Honestly, we are nearing the point to be able to start a class action lawsuit against EVGA.

From what I've seen of the current standing on the step-up queue vs the regular queue, the step-up has been getting the shaft. They are behind the regular queue.

keep crying about evga. Step up queue takes new card out of the poool so less card to sell. U have 90 days from purchase to register. Then the queue can last forever. But evga is contractually bonded whereas evga notify just an interest from customers. They have no obligation. So if you like zotac so much. Enjoy their 404 website experience then. Stop acting like an entitle 12yr old Karen

Well I was able to buy a Zotac 3090 off their website back in November (I think it's more difficult now sadly). Still waiting on my October 6th EVGA notify.

Something is definitely wrong when people are able to buy gpus faster on Amazon, Best Buy, etc. than being in the queue for this long.

Only a few dozen people out of a hundred or even thousands of people buy on best buy. It is almost impossible to buy GPU on Amazon, as the bots work there around the clock, and they buy them 1-2 seconds after they appear in stock.

There are stock issues everywhere, and yes miners are an issue but not nearly as much as scalpers and that is a part of the reason for the queue...

Scalpers are basically only selling to miners at this point, I refuse to believe that anyone would pay the current prices for a card is only going to use it for gaming (unless they make some money off of it, e.g. streaming).

But you underestimate the power of people with more money than sense to use said money for ridiculous uses.

I think it is great that EVGA thought of the queue, as it just makes sense. However they did not expect for the shortage to go this far (and beyond). EVGA may have obligations to other partners to sell most of the inventory to them, but the fact that EVGA is selling to Linus, it makes it very discouraging to those in line from last year. At the end of the day, EVGA is out to make money, and they can do what they want with their allotted hardware. Can you blame them? No. Do you think that EVGA nowadays is the old EVGA where you could call support at 3 am or have lifetime warranty on KR products? No, that time is gone (honestly I was surprised how good it was while it lasted). Do you think EVGA ever cared about gamers (or old customers)? Debatable. I can tell with my interaction with their support that they are also gamers and they do care. But they are only at the front of the store, and they do not control hardware stock or allocation. Frustrating as it is, you will have a better chance at getting a new card by driving to stores and waiting in line rather than waiting for EVGA to allow you to buy one. But as a suggestion to EVGA, they should have some type of official queue update. Even when moving very little, at least, it provides transparency that the line is indeed moving. Not only that, if you see that it is moving (lets say 3 cards a month for the 3080), then you already have your answer of "will i get called to buy? Not this year". All you need to display is: Servicing users from date: "xx/xx/xx" left to move to next day "xx users".

Newegg and amazon have been getting most of the GPUs.
Honestly. Should only be sending these cards to people that are waiting in line at this point. It's insane that people are still waiting from last year to get cards.

It looks like there's been ZERO movement in the EVGA queue for the 10G-P5-3897-KR since September - Why doesn't EVGA prioritize the queue before sending video cards to retailers?

Agreed - I don't know why EVGA isn't prioritizing their queue before sending video cards to retailers, etc. If that's the case, then what's the point of signing up for the queue if you're just going to have to wait several months anyway?

People are still going to be waiting for 2020 GPU orders in 2022 - trust me I just came back from the future ;)

Several months...more like several years at this point...some people will have been waiting for a year soon. The "queue" was just a marketing trick to make EVGA look good while in fact they are as innocent as i.e. MSI. They haven't sent any new cards to any of the EU queues for well over 7 months by now. It's just a joke at this point, they are showing zero respect towards EU customers. Their cards are coming to EU, but only for atrocious prices - so why host a queue if you're going to keep selling your cards elsewhere...

what i don't understand is if EVGA is focusing on their queue system and putting gamers first how is it that Amazon and others keeping posting new listings for new EVGA cards while the queue system on their own site isn't moving. seems a bit odd....

Probably the delay in 3080's could also be due to the release of the new GPU's next month so they had to change schedules in manufacturing to prioritize these new ones.

I can understand contracts and agreements that still need to be upheld BUT to see that the queue system from EVGA's onsite store for some models haven't even made it to last November and yet new cards are making their way into distributor's hands makes one think. I mean, how many were agreed upon under contract for them to provide to distributors vs allocated to their own in house store? Also, since they can actually see their own queue system and how many people are actually in it vs their supply, wouldn't it be considerate to provide some transparency to their customers and publicly show some real progression data of their queue system?

All the contention with brands and queues aside, the real question is when are things going back to normal? It seems that the crypto-crash is likely to be enduring, and pandemic related production deficiencies should be catching up to normal times, which only leaves Fab space as a constraint, which is not as easily fixable, but it's been long enough so I hope NVIDIA has worked something out with Samsung by now. I think the worst has passed, and if the 3080 Ti dies are based on the 3090 die, then the 3080 Ti won't be constrained by the "reject die" factor either.

I highly doubt that...Just because some goofy head makes some tweets doesn't mean the crash is "enduring"...
